Question 9
XE-DNAT1 markNeeds review
A tensile test is performed on a metallic specimen of diameter 8 mm and gauge length 50 mm. When the tensile load
reaches a value of 20 kN, the distance between the gauge marks increases by 0.09 mm. If the sample remains within the elastic limit, the modulus of elasticity (in GPa) of the test metal is..........[up to two decimal places]
